From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle became the deadliest sniper in American military history. On the rooftops of Iraq, he saved countless lives while earning a reputation so feared the enemy called him “the devil.”
American Sniper is his raw, unflinching account of war, written with brutal honesty and deep humanity. Chris shares not only battlefield moments but also the toll combat takes on a soldier’s heart and home.
Interwoven with reflections from his wife, Taya, the memoir reveals the cost of service—on marriage, family, and the soul.
This is not just a story of combat. It’s a portrait of courage, loss, and legacy from a man who became a symbol to many and a target to others.
